The Danger of Unbelief

12 (A)Take care, brothers and sisters, that there will not be in any one of you an evil, unbelieving heart [a]that falls away from (B)the living God. 13 But (C)encourage one another every day, as long as it is still called “today,” so that none of you will be hardened by the (D)deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we have become partakers of Christ (E)if we keep the beginning of our [b](F)commitment firm until the end, 15 while it is said,

(G)Today if you hear His voice,
Do not harden your hearts, as [c]when they provoked Me.”

12 Watch out, brothers, lest there be in some of you an evil, unbelieving heart, with the result that you fall away[a] from the living God. 13 But encourage one another day by day[b], as long as it is called “today,” so that none of you become hardened[c] by the deception of sin. 14 For we have become partners of Christ, if indeed we hold fast the beginning of our commitment steadfast until the end, 15 while it is said[d],

“Today, if you hear his voice,
do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”[e]
